Like Father Like Son

Lionel Cartwright


Tom: G

G                C                     G
Like father like son, like mother like daughter
G                   D         Dm          G
What is sown by the one will grown by the other
G                      C                               Em
What we are when we're old is what we learn when we're young
G                       C     D                G
You may wander from the fold, like father like son

[Chorus]
G                             Em
Now I knew a man when I was a child
          C                 D
He was so calm and I was so wild
             G                       Em
And I always wished, I could be that way
                        C                D      G
And now I find that I'm growing a little calmer everyday

[Verse]
G                C                     G
Like father like son, like mother like daughter
G                   D         Dm          G
What is sown by the one will grown by the other
G                      C                               Em
What we are when we're old is what we learn when we're young
Em                       C     D                G
You may wander from the fold, like father like son

[Chorus]
G                          Em
Now I'm a man and I know a child
             C                                D
And I try to understand when he runs a little wild
D                G                          Em
And I hope and I pray that when he looks at me
          C                 D               G
He sees a man like he would someday want to be

[Verse]
G                C                     G
Like father like son, like mother like daughter
G                   D                     G
What is sown by the one will grown by the other
G                      C                               Em
What we are when we're old is what we learn when we're young
Em                       C     D                G
You may wander from the fold, like father like son

G                       C     D                G
You may wander from the fold, like father like son
